Stuck Elevator

About this show

A.C.T. continues its tradition of introducing eclectic, unforgettable musical projects to the stage with Stuck Elevator, a visionary new work based on the true story of a Chinese deliveryman who was trapped in a Bronx elevator for 81 hours. Sounding the alarm will open the doors to freedom, but calling for help also means calling for attention--with dire consequences for this undocumented immigrant. Inventively staged by internationally acclaimed artist Chay Yew--and introducing the prodigious work of a brilliant young composing team--Stuck Elevator unleashes an evocative collision of stories, sounds, instruments, and ideas.
